Clinicians working with traumatized youth face many challenges in
supporting growth and development while addressing the many
negative consequences of abuse and neglect. When working with youth
in foster care, additional obstacles must be overcome: changing
placements, overwhelmed substitute caregivers, caseworker turnover,
complication with birth siblings and family, and communication
difficulties with and within the child welfare system. Treating
Trauma: Relationship-Based Psychotherapy with Children,
Adolescents, and Young Adults presents a theoretically based and
empirically supported framework for work with traumatized children,
youth, and young adults who have spent time in foster care. It
offers vivid examples of cases from the work of clinicians of A
Home Within, a national non-profit focused on meeting the emotional
needs of current and former foster youth. These nine case studies
illustrate the vital role that relationships play in helping
overcome the trauma of chronic, unexpected, and unexplained losses.
They describe the work with clients, the collateral work, and also
the therapists personal experiences of treating this vulnerable
population. This work also explores the impact of secondary trauma
on those working in an around the foster care system and addresses
ways that therapists and others vulnerable to vicarious trauma can
protect themselves, as well as their clients. In particular, three
chapters examine the power of peer consultation in sustaining
therapeutic work with vulnerable and traumatized populations.
Methods of integrating evidence-based approaches into treatment of
youth with multiple mental health problems and unavailable parents
are discussed and explored. Essential elements of effective mental
health interventions with traumatized foster youth are presented
and illustrated."
